E011 — Continuous Key Press Detected
Bosch's official US oven/microwave error-code page documents only E11 (touch keys/condensation) plus generic 'E and a number' catch-alls. A specific 'E011' is not separately documented (and may simply be an alternate rendering of E11's touch-key/condensation fault). The 'continuous key press detected' explanation below is not confirmed on Bosch's US consumer page — verify against your model's manual.

How to fix it
- Power off at the breaker for 5 minutes.
- Thoroughly wipe and dry the entire control panel.
- Avoid spraying cleaner directly on the panel — apply to cloth first.
- Restore power; if E011 returns immediately, the touch panel needs replacement.
